More poignant than the usual Hallmark Christmas movie

A young woman (Aimee Teegarden) needs a liver transplant. Along comes an ex marine (Brett Dalton from Shield) who altruistically decides to donate to her. Is it just gratitude or is it love?

It's a nice change of pace from the usual Hallmark fluff. If it was a feature film there wouldn't be a happy ending. So it's nice this organ transplant theme has a Hallmark treatment.

His saintliness is pure Hallmark but surprisingly not implausible in the context.

If you choose one Christmas movie at least this is a little different.

Best of the Season

By far the best Hallmark Christmas movie of the decade. Fantastic characters and actors who portray them. Great story. Heart warming. Asks so many questions of yourself as a viewer and those questions are consistent with the questions the characters were asking themselves. I have already watched it multiple times and I will watch it again.

The results are in.....

Okay, we've seen all the Hallmark 2018 Christmas movies, and there were a lot of clunkers. This however, is a wonderful movie. You wouldn't believe that someone could be so selfless, except it's based on real people. The lead actress, Aimee Teegarden, has a fragile beauty and an amazingly expressive face. Sign her up for a movie every Christmas.

A True story perfectly captured

Certainly one for having a tissue handy ! A lovely warming film based on a true story. Aimee Teegarden played the anxious and insecure girl in need of a transplant operation perfectly. Her smile lit up the screen and Brett Dalton was a good choice as the guy who was the perfect match . One of the best !

I finally found a winner

After watching so many Hallmark and Lifetime movies so far this season, I FINALLY found a great one. I absolutely loved it and at the end found out it was based on a true story which makes it even better. I also loved all of the actors - casting was great. That's the problem with most of these movies - there's no chemistry between the lead actors so the story isn't even believable. Not the case with this one. Highly recommend it.

Trivia
The real Chris and Heather can be seen dancing during the fundraiser scene. Just after the scene with main characters having their photos made, the character of Chris is walking toward Heather and you see a couple that he passes. The real life Chris has a shaved head wearing a blue shirt. Heather is blonde wearing a burgundy dress.

Goofs
While Heather and Chris are shopping in a Christmas store, Heather picks up a stuffed dachshund that's wearing a funny Christmas cap. As the cameras and angles change, sometimes the dog's cap is curved down and sometimes the cap is bent and pointing up.
